Om shanti Bhais! Take Care, Thailand Elephants Save Lives From the unbelievable chaos of the Tsunami disaster comes an incredible tale from Jim France of the Pavilion Hotel Group in Bangkok. At a resort on Phuket, one of the most popular attractions is (was) elephant rides. As many as eight people on one elephant, first into the surrounding forest, then down to the beach, to lunch at a fresh water lagoon, then back to the hotel. The elephants (nine) were kept chained to in-ground posts, not because they needed to be, but because it made the mothers feel better because their children seemed safe from a tromping when feeding the beasts. About twenty minutes before the first wave hit, the elephants became extremely agitated and unruly. Four had just returned from a trip and their handlers had not yet chained them. They helped the other five tear free from their chains. They all then climbed a hill and started bellowing. Many people followed them up the hill. Then the waves hit. After the waves subsided, the elephants charged down from the hill, and started picking up children with their trunks and running them back up the hill; when all the children were taken care of, they started helping the adults. They rescued forty-two people. Then they returned to the beach and carried up four dead bodies, one of a child. Not until the task was done would they allow their handlers to mount them. Then with handlers atop, they began moving wreckage. Many Super-Sentient capacities were being exhibited throughout this devastating tragedy by these Wonderful Elephant Beings, including Divine Love for one another and their fellow humans.

That is a beautiful story. I had heard that there were fewer animal deaths, especially in relation to human deaths, and thought it was simply due to human stupidity. I recall that people walked out onto the exposed sea bed out of curiosity between waves, and many were taken. In another setting,several years ago I have had cats who had been through so many earthquakes that they simply would open an eye, look around and go back to sleep. (Of course, that wasn't the case with the two 7's they had experienced, but only with smaller earthquakes later.) _________________ Catlady
